Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish and brown the chicken pieces on all sides - you may have to do this in batches. Remove from the dish and put to one side.
Lower the heat, add the onion and pepper, and gently cook for until softened. Add the garlic and chorizo, and cook for a further until the chorizo has released some of its oils into the dish. Stir in the tomato purée and cook for more.
Return the chicken pieces to the dish along with the thyme, white wine and stock. Bring the liquid to a boil, cover the dish with a tight-fitting lid and lower the heat. Cook for .
Tip in the rice and stir everything together. Cover, set over a low heat and cook for a further , or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed most of the cooking liquid. Remove from the heat and leave the dish to sit for to absorb any remaining liquid. Season to taste and scatter with parsley to serve.
